I haven't bought a car for a while... probably should fix that.

There are probably better ways to do this though, than being up stupidly early after virtually no sleep, feeling a bit ill and having to do this journey:

The car's not even that interesting - the effort to reward ratio is probably not worth it but at least it's probably slightly better than going to work today.

Not me! I work in a boring office in Brighton...

 

I'm glad I didn't ask him if he was the same Gary Cox that likes shit old cars then when he was informing me that I hadn't in fact turned my computer off and on again, I'd merely disconnected from my session and logged back in. I'd have looked like an idiot twice.

2.5hrs to go!

 

Er, it's a 1.6 petrol and not very interesting.

 

Seemingly rarer than I thought though, as on EBay, Gumtree and Auto Trader I could find only one other of the same body style for sale (and it was 3x the price of this one)

 

Focus was new in 1998, so I initially thought you'd plumbed the depths and gone for a Mk5 Escort.  But there's still a few of those for sale on Autotrader.

 

Don't tell me you're going all that way for an Astra G estate...Mind you it's a day out I suppose!

I was specifically looking for something that was not a Mk5 Escort (I've had two and neither was good) or an estate because I'm not really intending to replace the Mondeo any time soon. So it's neither of those things.

 

Only 1.5hrs to go! I think this trip may actually be worse than work. I hope this car gets me back to Brighton...
